Years after betraying her, he’s back in Haven Point…and ready to learn the truth

Megan Hamilton never really liked Elliot Bailey. He turned his back on her family when they needed him the most and it almost tore them all apart. So she’s shocked when Elliot arrives at her family’s inn, needing a place to stay and asking questions that dredge up the past. Megan will rent him a cottage, but that’s where it ends—no matter how gorgeous Elliot has become.

Coming back home to Haven Point was the last thing bestselling writer Elliot Bailey thought he’d ever do. But the book he’s writing now is his most personal one yet and it’s drawn him back to the woman he can’t get out of his mind. Seeing Megan again is harder than he expected and it brings up feelings he’d thought were long buried. Could this be his chance to win over his first love? - via GoodReads

I had pre-ordered The Cottages on Silver Beach by RaeAnne Thayne. It got bumped up the TBR pile because I needed to get it read for an upcoming trade. I love returning to Haven Point so its never a hardship to read one sooner than expected.

I really enjoyed The Cottages of Silver Beach! It held a mystery, true crime, and I particularly enjoyed the arc for Megan and Elliot. Returning to Haven Point is always heartwarming. These are people I would love to be friends with. Thayne sets up a great example of what a small town community can be like. Watching a community come together to support one of its own is truly a sight to see.

Megan and Elliott get a lot of page time in The Cottages of Silver Beach. A large portion of the book takes place over a road trip that Megan and Elliot take. I have to admit I was getting bummed that we weren’t getting a lot of the secondary characters; however, that means our main couple got a lot of attention. Megan and Elliott have quite a bit to overcome so it really made sense that they would need a lot of page time to work through it.

Thankfully I have a few Haven Point books left to read because the next Haven Point book is about a year out (well at least the one I’m really looking forward to!). I have a feeling its going to be a doozy of a read too! I’m excited to get my hands on it!
